What I Do In My Spare Time
When I’m not writing, I like creating. Here are a few of the things I’ve been up to this year.
Momma & Baby Owls
Crochet rug from old sheets.
Brothers from another mother.
My little super heroes.

Oh, fun!! I wish I was crafty. But more often than not, if I attempt a craft, I end up with glitter paint in my hair. Or accidentally cutting my hair. Or burning my hair with a glue gun. Yeah, crafts are dangerous to my hair… 🙂
You’re a smart woman to protect the hair at all costs. 🙂
. There is no end to your awesomeness!
You’re too kind. 🙂 I’m not awesome enough to make beautiful paintings or keep plants alive…
I’m in love with Chewy and the ewok. Are they crochet and felted? Very cute!
Thanks! They’re crochet. Is wire-brushing wool called felting? If so, then yes 🙂
I think they call that needle felting? I don’t know but whatever it is, it looks wonderful.
I’ve done some felting before but now that we have a front loader it’s so hard to do.
I’ll have to look into this wire-brushing method.
So cute!
Honored that 3 of those items reside in my home.
Yay! It’s cause you guys rock. 🙂 And you actually like my homemade gifts…
Love the kind of things you crochet. I grew up when women were crocheting table top doilies that were heavily starched that were like a Shakespearean collar around the base of a lamp! Maybe when I finish my book (almost) I can sew again, or play the piano. Sigh!!
And where might one purchase these items from you, Beth? I totally want a set of “Brothers from Another Mother” and the owls for my nursery. We have an eclectic theme anyway. Seriously, will you make me some? I’ll budget for them. 🙂
Aye, Joe, right you are! I’m honored to have some of the lass’s earlier creations (one is crocheted but not pictured above). I also have two creations of words in a frame – each a very different genre – nevertheless special. Ahh . . . a very talented lass, even if she can’t keep plants alive!
(That curse must run in the family!)
